iirc ~1/4 of the worlds energy production is renewable. More than 90% of all new electricity capacity worldwide came from renewable sources in 2024. Doomers want you to believe it can't happen again while we are in the very decade that is likely to change the world. Public policy doesn't even matter at this point, renewable energy is cheaper, so nearly all new investments are in renewables.

I seriously doubt anyone keeps records of dog deaths like they do humans. But bear hunters use dogs to hunt them because they scare and corner them, by running them up a tree. American black bears are afraid of everything.

In the last 126 years there was only 61 possible legitimate cases of an american black bear killing a human, and even some of those cases have been called into question. American black bears are some of the most passive animals, they hate confrontation and will basically always flee. Even if hungry and even if their babies are in danger. The scariest thing they will do is bluff charge while vocalizing and the run off.

There is a difference between ending colonialism and removing people from land. I find it absolutely crazy that people that have no issue with immigration anywhere else in the world think it is suddenly bad there. The issue isn't with Jews simply existing in the middle east, its with Israel's colonialism and genocide of Palestine. Isreal can stop existing without the genocide of the Jewish people. Removing all Jews is evil, just as removing all Palestinians is evil, they are both genocide.

The issue is one of power, colonialism, and Israel's genocide. Those can change without causing another genocide.

Dude, I'm not your therapist. Please go talk to someone instead of taking it out on potential allies. You need to deal with your shit instead of completely decontextualizing what people say and seeing enemies everywhere. To be very clear, I think netenyahu is objectively an evil piece of shit and those that follow him are embroiled in his evil. But any human alive can be evil, its not unique to Israelis or Germans. Calling someone a Zionist because your too confused to follow the conversation is silly. Please go back to reddit and take your toxicity with you.

I think you lack reading comprehension. Reread both sentences and maybe don't jump to conclusions before activating your brain and comprehending the full point.

Yes, of course, the Nazis controlled their populace with hate and fear, im failing to see why this is suddenly controversial.

More pointing out that its easy to look from the outside and wonder why people are so awful, but humans are easily controlled with fear.

When you live in constant war, its really easy to instill fear and foment hate. That's why netenyahu keeps up the war machine, its his primary avenue to power.

In the past 3 years my father has been billed millions of dollars in healthcare. If he had a health savings instead of insurance, he would simply be dead now. The better option is public single payer healthcare. Insurance sucks, but health savings is simply worse. Pooled risk spreads out costs. If the government pools the risk then they eliminate the needs for constant financial profit growth at the expense of the insured.

My understanding is no, they have a leaf called kari (pronounced similar to curry). If you say curry to an Indian born person, they typically think of the leaf, not a spice mix. Common spice mixes are garam masala, chaat masala, tikka, tandoori seasoning, etc

I don't like purposeless exercise. So all my exercise has a purpose. I garden, do yard work, bike to work, paddle for pleasure. Life doest have to be suffering, just need to find what motivates you.
